There are three predicates related to MSI-X:
* ivshmem_has_feature(s, IVSHMEM_MSI) is true unless the non-MSI-X
variant of the device is selected with msi=off.
* msix_present() is true when the device has the PCI capability MSI-X.
It's initially false, and becomes true during successful realize of
the MSI-X variant of the device. Thus, it's the same as
ivshmem_has_feature(s, IVSHMEM_MSI) for realized devices.
* msix_enabled() is true when msix_present() is true and guest software
has enabled MSI-X.
Code that differs between the non-MSI-X and the MSI-X variant of the
device needs to be guarded by ivshmem_has_feature(s, IVSHMEM_MSI) or
by msix_present(), except the latter works only for realized devices.
Code that depends on whether MSI-X is in use needs to be guarded with
msix_enabled().
Code review led me to two minor messes:
* ivshmem_vector_notify() calls msix_notify() even when
!msix_enabled(), unlike most other MSI-X-capable devices. As far as
I can tell, msix_notify() does nothing when !msix_enabled(). Add
the guard anyway.
* Most callers of ivshmem_use_msix() guard it with
ivshmem_has_feature(s, IVSHMEM_MSI). Not necessary, because
ivshmem_use_msix() does nothing when !msix_present(). That's
ivshmem's only use of msix_present(), though. Guard it
consistently, and drop the now redundant msix_present() check.
While there, rename ivshmem_use_msix() to ivshmem_msix_vector_use().
